We saw the retribution,
We saw the games you play.
Shutting your ears to the sound of desperation.
We were young and innocent,
The tears were streaming down her face.
You should have been more subtle,
Can you feel the shame?
I’m not the one to blame, I’m not the one to change.
Every night you stumble on the same wall.
Seek forgiveness, for the restless.
Your past is what still haunts you,
And mostly what you’re made of,
And why you’re so lonely.
The walls you’ve built will break down, let everybody see,
How you’re killing me, killing me.
Black out, face the facts.
You owe this to yourself.
And if honesty makes you tremble, it’s time to take your business elsewhere.
It’s all about the family values, it’s all about the life you left us for.
NOW! Let the levies of virtue break, let the levies of virtue break.
Shatter the dream,
Collect the pieces,
Take the fall.
Shatter the dream,
Collect the pieces,
Blind us with your open arms.
Carry me the way back home.
Can’t you see that we’re falling down?
Do you know what this means to me?
It’s breaking, it’s tearing me down.
Do you know what this means to me?
You’re tearing, you’re breaking me down.
Black out, face the facts. You owe this to yourself.
